Cefrank Smart WiFi Puck Lights
Score: 83/100Rankings
Cefrank Smart WiFi Puck Lights deliver adjustable white light from 2700 K to 6000 K with high CRI and durable aviation-aluminum housing, controllable via Alexa, Google Assistant, or app. They lack RGB color options and the physical dimmer can be hard to access. Perfect for tech-savvy users needing bright, energy-efficient task lighting.
VST's smart under-cabinet bars combine UL-listed safety with high CRI and impressive luminous efficiency, offering versatile Alexa and Google control plus handwave activation. They are limited by lack of water resistance and a fixed bar length. Best for users who need bright, color-accurate lighting in dry indoor spaces with multiple smart control options.
